Alliance for Democracy Announces Special Unity Convention

The Alliance for Democracy has announced a special unity convention set for October 6th, focusing on critical party matters. The convention will review the party’s executive appointments, vote on a motion to recall the current leadership and appoint an interim leader.

During a recent press conference, Tracey Taegar-Panton declared, “We have not resigned; we will not resign from the UDP!” This was in response to United Democratic Party (UDP) chairman Michael Peyrefitte’s claim that several members had “constructively resigned” from the party. Taegar-Panton accused UDP Leader Moses “Shyne” Barrow of violating the party’s constitution by appointing new standard bearers to replace the current ones.

Collet Area Representative Patrick Faber, Second Deputy Leader Beverly Williams, and former Belmopan Area Representative John Saldivar joined Taegar-Panton at the press conference. These members have been vocal in their opposition to the current UDP leadership.
